Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Riding mode customisation
This function customises each riding style.
To access the function it is necessary to view the ""setting" menu", using buttons (1) "s" or (2) "t" select the "riding mode" function and press the reset button (3) to enter the following page.
When accessing the function, the three riding modes appear on the display; to customise the parameters, use buttons (1) "s" or (2) "t" to select the riding mode to be modified and press reset (3) to confirm.
The parameters that can be "customised" are "dtc" (ducati traction control) and '"engine".
Any parameter change made is saved in the memory also after a battery-off.
To modify the dtc parameters see the paragraph "dtc (ducati traction control) setting function".
To modify the engine parameters see the paragraph "engine setting function (engine power control)".
The parameters set by ducati for each individual riding style can be restored with the "default" function.
To reset the "default" parameters see paragraph "default function (resetting ducati default parameters)".
If the parameters have not been modified (customised) or are reset using the "default" function, when you quit the setting menu, in the "main" screen, the "background" indicating the riding style (sport, touring or urban) becomes blue (1).
Changes should only be made to the parameters by people who are experts in motorcycle setup; if the parameters are changed accidentally, use the "default function (resetting ducati default parameters)" to reset the parameters.
